OUR COMPANY was founded by Indian based expatriated business consultants with extensive experience in international business, new market entry and start-up's in a range of industries.
OUR VISION is to deliver practical and cost effective support, services and advice in a time saving framework for entities looking to enter the Indian market.
OUR PROJECTS although varied in nature, scope and reach have a single common feature - that unique blend of our experience and insight that provides foreign clients with more-than-expected value addition from each assignment.
Visa: You must have a current visa to gain entry to India. Contact your local Indian Embassy for details, ideally allowing 4 weeks for processing
We recommend that you have at least six months on your passport before leaving home
A comprehensive Travel Insurance is essential
Ensure that your vaccinations & innoculations are up to date. As some vaccinations require a series of treatments in advance, start the innoculation process 6-8 weeks in advance of departure
Bring necessary medications from home for guarantee of authenticity. Avoid having to re-stock on medications in India where possible
Bring plenty of business/visitor cards!!
Ensure that you have organised initial accommodation and transportation arrangements for your arrival
Drink only bottled water, and keep a bottle with you at all times
Use only legitimate foreign exchange outlets. You cannot purchase rupees outside of India. All international airports have either ATM's and/or money changing booths. Purchasing Rs 5,000 on arrival in mixed denominations is a good minimum cash requirement
ATM's are readily available in all urban areas
Be cautious of street food; meat, fish & salads
If using public transport, learn to read a taxi/rickshaw meter and check that the driver understands where you are going before getting in! Having your destination written on a piece of paper beforehand is useful.
Be cautious of beggars - although they can be persistant, you are under no obligation to encourage begging
